For the third year ecological data repositories and data specialists will collaborate at the [https://www.esa.org/saltlake/ Ecological Society of America's annual meeting] to add a Data Help Desk (DHD) to the virtual conference space. The [https://arcticdata.io Arctic Data Center], [https://www.cuahsi.org Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Science (CUAHSI)], [https://www.dataone.org DataONE], [https://environmentaldatainitiative.org Environmental Data Initiative (EDI)], [https://www.gbif.org GBIF], [https://www.idigbio.org iDigBio], [https://www.neonscience.org NEON], and [https://www.neotomadb.org Neotoma] will each engage with meeting attendees about questions, comments and concerns using DHD partner data in their own discipline and area of research. The conference is being held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic, from August 3 - 6, 2020. | For the third year ecological data repositories and data specialists will collaborate at the [https://www.esa.org/saltlake/ Ecological Society of America's annual meeting] to add a Data Help Desk (DHD) to the virtual conference space.

| Do you write scripts to analyze your data? An Application Programming Interface (API) can provide direct access to data and metadata in online repositories, saving you time and increasing the reproducibility of your analyses. This talk will provide an introduction in R to using APIs from several repositories of ecological data. | | Do you write scripts to analyze your data?

* The [https://www.idigbio.org/wiki/index.php/ViralMuse_Task_Force ViralMuse Task Force]: In response to the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, natural history museum faculty and staff recognized the need to organize a task force to coalesce needed responses to the current SARS-Cov-2 virus "spillover" event. Goals of the group include producing recommendations for the COVID-19 situation that leverage the biodiversity infrastructure (e.g., specimens and informatics) of natural history museums and draw attention to the changes in standards of practice seen as critical by this group for preventing and mitigating future emerging zoonotic events. Members of this group note that much of what is needed is known. Questions center on how to ensure everyone (i.e. scientific, government, individuals) can move forward to implement recommended changes. | |||
